Miracle
at the Higher Ground Café is a new novel by Max Lucado. The main
character, Chelsea Chambers traveled back to her hometown to run her mother’s café
after her death. She discovered that the café is in a huge amount of debt,
$86,000 to the IRS and she only has thirty days to repay them. She is
struggling to bring the profits up and save her mom’s beloved business. She is
also going through a recent spilt from her husband, Sawyer. He is a famous NFL
player who was dropped by the Seahawks. Another female agent tried to assist
him in getting picked up for another tea. They ended up becoming closer and he eventually
cheated on his wife. She realizes that the path to saving her mother’s business
is going to take time but she is running out of time and she needs a miracle. God’s
sends her an angel, Manny to assist her in her business and He also creates an
internet connection exclusively to her café. This connection allows customers
to directly ask God a question and He in facts replies.

I would recommend this exhilarating novel to anyone who
enjoys reading novels that have a Christian message portrayed throughout. I
have read many non-fiction books by Max Lucado but this is the first novel by
him that I have read and let me tell you, he can write fiction and non-fiction.
I really liked how he was able to describe the scenes as if I was watching them
happen and how he easily mixed the perfect amount of faith based concepts in. I
liked how this one included angels and how it illustrated that they are ever so
present helping us through our everyday tasks. I especially connected with the notions
of God answering people’s questions and like most people sometimes I wish we
had a way where we could ask God a question. If I could ask God a question, I
would ask one about who I would marry. If you’re looking for a new novel to
read, then read this one!

About the book:

Miracle at the Higher Grounds Cafe (Thomas Nelson, February 2015)

What if you could ask God anything? What would you ask? And how would he
answer?

Chelsea Chambers is on her own. After a public split from her NFL superstar
husband, Chelsea takes a bold step out of the limelight and behind the
counter of the Higher Grounds Café, an old-fashioned coffee shop in dire need
of reinvention. But when her courage, expert planning, and out-of-this-world
cupcakes fail to pay the bills, this newly single mom finds herself desperate
for help. Better yet, a miracle.

Then a curious stranger lands at Chelsea's door, and with him, an even more
curious string of events. Soon, customers are flocking to the Higher Grounds
Café, and not just for the cupcakes and cappuccino. They've come for the
internet connection to the divine. Now the café has become the go-to place
for people in search of answers to life's biggest questions.

When a catastrophe strikes and her ex comes calling, Chelsea begins to wonder
if the whole universe is conspiring against her quest to make it on her own.
After a shocking discovery opens her eyes to the unseen world around her,
Chelsea finds the courage to ask, and heaven answers in a most unexpected
way.

When a catastrophe strikes and her ex comes calling, Chelsea begins to wonder if the whole universe is conspiring against her quest to make it on her own.
